"It is simply not enough to remove statutes. Black people in this country are dealing with issues that are systemic in nature," Young continued.Making such a sweeping statement like that, the utterer should be pressed to provide overwhelming evidence to back it up. Obviously, there isn't any. So these destructive ideologues get away with spewing diarrhoea all the time. Shouldn't be allowed.
George L Why should we pay for what happened during slavery?'Who exactly are you talking about when you say "we"?
The arguments are exchanged concerning black and white.Therein lies the problem!
Slavery was fundamental to the social, political and economic order of medieval Ethiopia. Racism in the territory was traditionally mainly directed at ethnic minorities, as well as other individuals from the south of the country. Collectively, these groups are locally known as barya, derogatory terms originally denoting slave descent, irrespective of the individual's family history
In Ethiopia, slavery was legal and widespread; slave raiding was endemic in some areas, and slave trading was a way of life. The largest slavery-driven polity in the Horn of Africa before the nineteenth century was the Ethiopian Empire. Though its intercontinental slave trade was substantial, the Ethiopian Highlands were the largest consumer of slaves in the region.
Slavery in Ethiopia existed for centuries, going as far back as 1495 B.C. There are also sources indicating the export of slaves from the Aksumite Kingdom (100–940 AD). The practice formed an integral part of Ethiopian society, from its earliest days and well in to the 20th century so much so even Ethiopian rulers, including those who did not approve of the institution, such as Emperor Menelik II (1889-1913) and Emperor Haile Selassie (Ethiopia’s regent, 1916-1930 and Emperor of Ethiopia, 1930-1974), are said to have owned slaves by the thousands (Pankhurst, 1968, p. 75.).Slaves were traditionally drawn from groups inhabiting Ethiopia's southern hinterland as well as the Omotic groups. War captives were another source of slaves, though the perception, treatment and duties of these prisoners was markedly different.
One of the first written laws to regulate slavery in the Ethiopian region was The Fetha Nagast (The Law of the Kings), a traditional law for Ethiopian Orthodox Christians. Under this law, one category of people that could legally be enslaved was prisoners of war.
It declared:· [[t]he state of] Liberty is in accord with the law of reason, for all men share liberty on the basis of natural law. But war and the strength of horses bring some to the service of others, because the law of war and of victory makes the vanquished slaves of the victors]
The law also provided for the enslavement of non-believers and the children of slaves.
Afruikans have been in America before 130,000B.C.There is no evidence for that.
The arguments are pertinent to what Nick Canon said.But ignores what I said.
Afruikans have been in America before 130,000B.C.There is no scientific evidence for that. Theories yes, but evidence, no.
Ethiopia is Atlantis!I doubt it. There is evidence of an ancient civilization in the Atlantic near the Gulf of Mexico like the Bimini road for example. Edgar Cayce and Plato put Atlantis there or thereabouts. As does recent discoveries beneath the waves. Both put the final destruction of Atlantis around 10,000 BC, which coincides with the Younger Dryas impact event on the North American continent. The Cs said Atlantis was a global empire.
